You go, girl, with the fuschia and the buttons straining against your cleavage and the kick-ass pose. Y&R don't know what they've lost!

Hello, my name is Sharon and I need to fire my stylist for not finishing the color process on my hair. Oh, and for not cutting it. Because now I look like Jewel.

Jerry Douglas popped in after a day on the golf course.

LOL, I love how MS is doing her best Bewitched impression with her nose.

Ugh. Newbies. And go get a haircut, Toilet-Brush.

Oh, yes, please DO pose again and again and again for us, Amber. It's not like you're not filling up airtime as it is. Plus it gives me another chance to laugh at your summer camisole/furry snow boots outfit.

This is Mr. Melody Thomas Scott, apparantly -- Ed the EP.

Who's this? Steven Kent, Sony TV spokeswhore. Whatever.

Lynn Marie Latham, who writes for a show called GeNots City Landing.

Awww.

Oh, here she is again. Wow, that sucking you're doing on your finger is way sexy. Reminds me of Dr. Evil doing that pinkie thing in Austin Powers.

Damn, Colleen looks about 20 years older than Korbel. Still love Adrienne Leon, though.

101_17.jpg

MS makes me want to sort of hug her in every pic. Woah -- work those boobs, Tracey.

101_18.jpg

No. WORDS. Except: *that* shirt makes me want to break out into a chorus of "I am what I am."

Quick! Mount him!

Where did JC's arm go? :blink:

I think I just got an idea for the next Y&R SL featuring our new Male Lead, Don Diamont. Brad... David... brothers? Cue scene where they thigh-wrestle each other. That's how they know they are brothers, see. Because of their powerful killing thighs.

What's a Johnson?

Lee Phillip Bell (co-creator of Y&R) and MTS.

One can never have too many diamante headbands and leopard print, no?

LOL, I saw Lee Philip Bell and thought it was Susan Flannery for a moment. Then I saw that poodle she's carrying and thought "Zapato's chew-toy?"

The cast. Where's VictuhNooman?

Victoria Rowell kinda standing aways to one side. Just sayin'.

CLB about to play "Giddyup!" with the dude who plays Kane. Seriously!

Christian, Christian - what were you thinking!? Why is Michelle Stafford doing crazy - REALLY scrary - looks in ever picture???

To Sharon Case: Honey, I'm not a violent person but in exchange - for let's say a kiss - I'll beat that hairdresser up for you. Just drop me a line...

BTW: Not only Mr. Mumbles is suspiciously missing from this cast gathering. Actually everyone who kept Y&R on top for 18 years is missing: No Eric Braeden, no Jess Walton but StupidAustralianSonImport (Will the insanity never end!?), no Jeanne Cooper - only Peter Bergman was there. These were IMO the pillars of Y&R in the last 2 decades and beyond. Mostly newbies are pictured - plus JeffreyDud some other stinkers which have overstayed their welcome by a long time. (Talking 'bout you FauxVictoria & Will Stiffwell!) And Cat, I still have a soft spot for Miss Ambrosia, but the kind of writing on Y&R is pissing me off, too.

Any word why Jerry Douglas was there? Yet another dreadful ghost sighting to come, please not!

LOL, Cheap. Not this week, though -- Y&R hit something like 4.6 in HH. There's no way LML can be fired after a showing like that.

sheilaforever, I wondered about Jess Walton and Jeanne Cooper, too. Doesn't seem fair that JC (on Y&R since 1976), JW (since 1987) and EB (since 1980) -- and all major, frontburner actors -- not partake of a little cake.

And if Jerry Douglas was invited, why not Eileen Davidson? After all, she's going to B&B, another CBS/Bell soap.

Ugh, don't get me started about JT. Mind you, at least TL has been on the show a good 6-8 years. The dude who plays Kane looks nice and is clearly popular with his co-stars, but a front row position in the cast photo? Dude's only been on for, like, 2 weeks!

Also re: Michelle Stafford's "crazy" faces, I don't mean to be casting aspertions on the great MS and I'm only assuming her but... sometimes when you can't wrinkle your forehead like that, it means you've been seeing Dr. Botox.

    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?
